Alright, first draft of the first Scenario for the Disco Arkham Horror set set is done (along with base decks for the 4 flavors of Harry). Now to see if I can playtest it a couple of times to make sure it's not too busted before I throw more energy at it.

Kicking myself for not having a game to submit to this stellar event this year. But in truth, the game I was gonna bring got signed so I suppose I can't complain too much. If *you* have a game that's more than a bit offbeat, considering signing up and selling copies at IGNM at PAX U!

reminder: you've got until 9pm eastern tomorrow to submit an application to be a vendor for the Indie Games Night Market! I'll then spend a couple weeks going over the submissions and let folks know by the 15th whether or not you've been selected! www.newmillindustries.com/ignm-app

For the threes of people this is of interest for, I've started spending some of my copious free time on a Disco Elysium set for Arkham Horror (Strange Eons is a good tool). The goal is 4 pre-built investigator decks, one for each flavor of Harry, and a 3-mission mini campaign. Teasers attached!

Saw The Odyssey last night, and quite enjoyed it. It was in dialogue with Oppenheimer, but was a better exploration of cleverness as both a blessing for "solving problems" and a societal curse (what happens after the problem is solved). I really hope I can explore this in my designs (someday)

Please forgive me some self-promotion here. My game Sykes-Picot was released in 2025, and I think it fits the criteria of the Summit Award quite well. It is easy to teach and play, and it covers a unique historical topic in a novel way. To anyone willing to nominate it, I'd be highly appreciative.

SDHistCon@sdhistcon.bsky.social · 2w ago

Nominations are now open for the 2026 Summit Award (for historical games published in 2025) and the 2026 Bobby Nunes Memorial Award (for historical gaming content published in 2025)! More info, and the nominations form, available here: sdhist.com/nominations-...

These resources aren't just for TTRPG designers -- board game 🎲✂️ creators, you can class up your games without a drop of AI "art."

Public Domain Art is the lifeblood of small tabletop rpgs, but it can be a nightmare trying to find the right art and license. This week, I’ve re-uploaded my old list from 2020 (with updates) of public domain websites. That's 500,000+ public domain paintings, photos, maps, and film. Link below 🔗👇

A fun surprise to come back to after 4 days of camping, my prototype for Train of Thought came in. Excited to get this to the physical table for testing both in PDX and at Pax West

Breaking news! I heard Zach (and maybe Putnam???), co-creator of Dwarf Fortress, will be at PAX West this year, ready to give autographs, sign merch, and give dwarfy high-fives to all and sundry. What will YOU get signed?
